This is how we make em at ROC's Firehouse
Premium tequila - at least Jose Cuervo
Good mix - we use Island Oasis. Probably the most expensive but it's the best. This is a well balanced mix that doesn't require any added stuff like lime juice
Splash of Cointreau
Stir it all up or use a shaker. Then pour it all into a glass filled with ice. Remember to salt the rim of the drinking glass with some Kosher salt BEFORE your pour the mixture in the glass.
Don't forget to pour a lil floater (1/2 to 1 oz depending on taste and size of the drink) of Gran Marnier on top
And don't go ruining it by putting it in a blender
Have fun

Mrs Drmr -
Paging Dr Margarita...
- in the meantime, I found this recipe at
www.drinkof theweek.com/archive/c/caddy-maggie.htm
Cadillac Margarita
Take a cocktail glass and rub the lime wedge around the rim, dip rim in the salt.
1 1/2 oz Gold Tequila
1/2 oz Cointreau
1/2 oz Grand Marnier
1 oz Lime Juice
Bar Salt
Garnish - Lime Squeeze
In a shaker with ice combine Tequila, Cointreau, Grand Marnier, & Lime Juice. Shake well and strain into cocktail glass, or serve over ice in a highball.
In my experience, the premium liquers - Cointreau and Grand Marnier make a big difference...

I agree with Clownpuncher and DiMarcobros - I'd float the Grand Marnier, too...
